Problem
Light electric vehicles (LEVs) often suffer from range anxiety due to limited charging infrastructure and the inconvenience of carrying bulky, external chargers. Current charging solutions lack the speed and accessibility needed for convenient, on-the-go charging.
Solution
Ergon Labs has developed a compact, integrated power converter that combines a fast charger and motor controller directly within the LEV. This on-board charging solution allows users to plug into any standard 15A outlet or Level 1 charging point, providing a rapid charge and significantly reducing range anxiety. The integrated design eliminates the need for external charging equipment, making it easier for users to charge their vehicles at home, in the office, or anywhere a standard outlet is available. Ergon's technology enables LEVs to gain approximately 15 kilometers of range in just 10 minutes of charging.
Target Audience
The primary target audience includes original equipment manufacturers (OEMs) of light electric vehicles, engineers working on electric mobility solutions, and individual owners of electric vehicles.
